"Good day. I am responsible for the soft skills instructor-led training for the 65,000 employees and leaders of Verizon Wireless. I am contemplating a new training model to move us away from physically-in-person instructor-led classes and towards highly interactive webinars. I would like to completely replace the former with the latter; however, I have a question regarding how effective and completely this can be achieved. Do you have, and if so, could you provide articles or research that proves to me that I can achieve my training objectives to the same level of effectiveness when using your webinar service? And also do you provide live examples that I and/or my review team might view or attend to get an idea of just how interactive and effective your webinars could be? Thank you."
